Dell 27 Plus 4K Monitor – S2725QS – 27-inch 4K (3840 x 2160) 120Hz 16:9 Display, IPS Panel, AMD FreeSync Premium, sRGB 99%, Integrated Speakers, 1500:1 Contrast Ratio, Comfortview Plus – Ash White

Fantastic productivity monitor for those who can’t go back to 60hz.
After upgrading to a 360hz 1440p OLED and giving away my old 144hz 1440p IPS, I needed another monitor primarily productivity and programming as a CS student. But after trying other 27 inch 4k monitors with 60hz refresh rates, it didn’t feel like home. it just made everything feel slower and made me feel less productive. But this monitor ticks all my boxes, it reaches 350 nits brightness which is on par with my old monitor but with noticeably better contrast. You wouldn’t think 1000:1 to 1500:1 makes a difference if you own an OLED that can literally reach infinite:1 but yes, it makes a big difference. Colors look good to me when just eyeballing it next to my 2019 MacBook at a comparable brightness. The resolution at this size is fantastic text and every part of the UI is ultra crisp like my MacBook (honestly even more so, I think ClearType makes a big difference). Viewing angles are great. The matte coating does produce some grain which is noticable if you are in a dark room viewing full white screen within a foot away but it’s by far not the worse i’ve seen and with dark mode I legitimately cannot notice it and the reflection handling is pretty great.Now the refresh rate… wow. 4k on 27 inches with 120hz is just, stunning. Just feels like the way navigating a desktop is meant to feel. It honestly feels like a crime we use 60hz for literally anything, it makes everything just feel way more responsive. Response times are okay, absolutely fantastic for a productivity however for gaming with a mouse it wouldn’t be my first pick. It’s not my use case but I feel I should mention it. There is quite some noticable ghosting in games but I am coming from an OLED so I am probably particularly sensitive to noticing it. It’s FreeSync compatible which is just great but I would spend a bit more to get faster pixel response personally if you are going to ever play FPS games with keyboard and mouse on it. But if you are getting it for playing on a controller or console then you’ll probably be pretty happy and I would choose it over a another gaming focused monitor with 1000:1 contrast even with it’s relatively slower response time (it’ll be lightning fast compared to any LCD TV). People recommend getting and gaming on much slower VA MiniLED panels all the time so that’s worth mentioning.My only true complaint for my use case is there is a slight amount of vignetting on the right side of the panel which is only noticeable if I purposely move a light mode window to the edge and back again, watching it closely. I literally never notice it during actual work since I use dark mode but even if I used light mode I doubt it would bother me much if at all. No noticable flicker, IPS glow is very minimal with no noticable hotspots. Overall pretty great panel for the price and I couldn’t imagine wanting much more out of a productivity monitor.

Great office OLED with nice built-in sound!
So far so good. I bought this as a replacement for an older LG 1440p gaming monitor. I’m coming down from 144hz to 120hz, but I’m not sniping in a competitive FPS or anything, so for my uses as an office monitor first with media consumption and gaming as a lesser priority, it’s great. In HDR mode in Windows, it’s a little dim, but perfectly usable if you can control the light in your room and you’re not getting the full on sun blasting into your space. But it brightens up quite a lot and is comparable to my older LCD 1440p monitor when I turn off HDR in windows.Another really nice addition is the soundbar. It’s not going to blow your mind, but the audio is clear and it’s a really nice upgrade from my laptop speakers. In my office space, it’s great and I never go over 70% volume for anything.There’s some criticism of the limited ports, but I have this plugged into a caldigit dock via USB-C. I keep a HDMI cable plugged in if I need to connect to something else on my desk, but the two ports seem like plenty. I’m also not using it as a USB hub, so the limited ports there are not an issue.I think it’s really reasonably priced for the money and is a solid upgrade and a nice entry point into OLED. My only knock would be it’s not the fastest for really fast images in some games, but if you don’t need that, it’s fine. I can play platformers and forza horizon and it looks great. If you’ve got your name on a flavor G-Fuel though, it’s probably going to be too slow.

Excellent 4K Monitor-Easy to Set up and Use
Excellent 4K monitor. Narrow border bezel allows for full view screen. Easy to adjust height, side to side angle and top to bottom slope. Audio is very good for monitor speakers. Zoom calls are much clearer and more detail can be seen when viewing other presenter’s slides and documents. White base and thin black edge trim is a nice two color touch. Controls for color, saturation, contrast, etc. are intuitive and easily mastered using a combo 360 degree toggle and press switch.

Fantastic all around monitor.
Monitor is crisp for productivity. The color is spectacular right out of the box (not a photographer or videographer). 120hz support is fantastic for much smoother scrolling and if gaming. Easy to set up but the only con is the stand is bad. It doesn’t have a proper locking option and it’s just more like a Trust me bro I’m in there but if you tilt it slightly or move it up too fast you will have the panel disconnect from the stand. I would recommend putting this monitor in a wall mount or desk arm.

I picked up the 27-inch 4K S2725QS, and honestly, it’s been a fantastic monitor. The IPS panel delivers stunning colours, bright, vivid, and razor-sharp, and the 120Hz refresh rate makes everything feel super smooth.I’m using it with my M1 MacBook Pro. A heads-up for other Mac users: the HDMI port won’t push 120Hz, so you’ll need a USB-C to DisplayPort cable (shout-out to Dell support team who pointed that out to me). I grabbed one for about $20, and now I’m getting the full 120Hz with no issues.Performance-wise, it’s crystal clear with zero ghosting, and the color accuracy looks great right out of the box. The ergonomic stand is a plus, you can swivel, tilt, or even rotate it vertically for coding, which is super handy.The design is clean and minimal, with slim bezels and a neat cable management clip on the back. It looks great on my desk. I’ve also hooked it up to my PS5, and games look crisp and fluid.Overall, it’s an excellent 4K monitor, sharp, minimal, and versatile. Couldn’t be happier with it.

Excellent 4k monitor, great addition to a MacBook Pro laptop. The USB-c plug let you charge and display the laptop and save one plug and one less wire on the desk. There is also a nice feature that let you have a usb-c and usb charge via a pop up plug under the screen.The display is solid and extremely flexible on height angle of viewing. I recommend the display. I will update if not reliable.
